The RBX is an old block and has been outperformed (most of the time) by the TDX.

Look into a swiftech "appogee" or "storm" block. Both will outperform the tdx.

Everyone plasters that around, I've yet to see one outperform my TDX.

I'd say go w/ either the TDX or the Apogee... or if you have extra cash get the Storm

Let me rephrase that. All tests and everyones opinion leads me to think that the apogee or storm will outperform a tdx block...

LOL nah man, even if it does perform better it'd be like 1-2C and that isnt worth the time of chaning out anyways. Whats your load temp? Got a GPU in the loop?

Mines about 38 C cpu full load, 38 C gpu full load. All fans on the lowest they will go with my nexus fan controller.
